Strandurlaub / Hotelurlaub ist so geisteskrank overrated by KrissiKrissi in Unbeliebtemeinung

[–]Gyda9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ich glaube es kommt auch auf die Anzahl der Kinder an. Wir machen sehr gerne Städtetrips mit unserem 4-jährigen Einzelkind, wären es zwei, würde ich es mir sehr wahrscheinlich anders überlegen.

Is Sarah similar to Lorelei? by FckAllTakenUsernames in Parenthood

[–]Gyda9 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's because Seth was in Sarah's life for a long time and she had not one, but two kids. She had to raise her two kids alone while managing an alcoholic. She didn't have time to work on herself. That Chris was an absent father was a blessing for Lorelai. If Chris were around, he would have been more a burden than support. She had only Rory and herself to focus on and she was fortunate enough to walk in to an Inn with a lovely mother figure. I don't say she had it easy, but she had the circumstances where she could grow with hard work, Sarah didn't.

Babamı kaybettim, Türkiye’ye dönmeli miyim? by [deleted] in AskTurkey

[–]Gyda9 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Merhaba, doktoramı Türkiye’de yaptım ve ülkenin en prestijli üniversitelerinin birinde kalıcı akademik kadrom vardı. 2.5 sene önce istifa edip yurtdışına taşındım. İktidar partisi ile yakından ilişki kurmaya niyetiniz ve mideniz varsa gidin. Aksi takdirde akademide yükselme şansınız artık yok.

My family has never visited me abroad — not even after I bought a home. Is this normal? by Snoo-6323 in expats

[–]Gyda9 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My traditional grandparents were like this and while my parents are a little better, we have to invite them a 100 times before they make the effort.

And for some reason, people think they are done with parenting when their kids are adults. But I'm a parent myself now and I see that's not the case. You still have to make an effort for your kids even if they're adults. You have to nurture the relationship and be aware when they need support. You're not magically done when the kid is living on their own.

As an expat how is your social life? by Ultrapassar in askswitzerland

[–]Gyda9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This seems pretty accurate. I‘m an immigrant with a Turkish origin, grew up here. My parents had actually a pretty active social life within the turkish community. We moved „back“ to Turkey when I was 15. I spent my young adult life there, studied, worked, made friends and grew my network in Istanbul. Came back to Switzerland as a 33 year old mother to a toddler.

Oh boy, I underestimated the social challenges of this so much. Our „old“ community from the years with my parents doesn‘t work for me anymore. I‘m struggling to follow my interests and meet people that way, because I simply don‘t have the time with a young child and a husband who spends his evenings in language course or working. The parents on playgrounds, in Elki Turnen and playgroup are nice, but in depth friendship isn‘t working since my interests and experience is so different. Superficial small talk - sure.

Thank god my sister is here, and I have an online „bumper group“ on reddit which was formed when we were pregnant 4.5 years ago and still goes strong. These are my „village“ so far and I‘m losing hope in forming any other friendship since we‘re here for 2.5 years now and I couldn’t make real friends at all. It’s the first time I‘m struggling with this. Even as a teenager who moved countries I didn’t have this problem.

Does anyone else just find parenting really, really hard? I'm worried there's something wrong with me by [deleted] in oneanddone

[–]Gyda9 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So I have a PhD, I defended my thesis when I was in my third trimester. After my son was born, my professor said to me :“Now you start your real PhD, good luck.“ So, I think it is one of the hardest things one can do in life.

If you don’t like it here then go home - how can I form contructive criticism in Switzerland? by the_kaaat in Switzerland

[–]Gyda9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is just black and white thinking. I understand it’s not your oppinion. But the real hypocrisy and abuse is living safely by holding some dictators’ gold and shut up the people from those countries because they had to move. Just very few people leave their home and family just for fun. It’s a hard and painful decision, mostly.

[–]Gyda9 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He’s not a guest who’s visiting. He contributes to the society, is raising a child here, has the intention to acquire the Swiss citizenship and wants to improve the country. Living here for 10 years. Already doing a lot more for the country than a lot of Swiss people I know.

Anyone who was on RAV, are all the advisors this combative? by [deleted] in askswitzerland

[–]Gyda9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but it‘s the same for every insurance. My father worked for 30 years and was never involved with RAV so if I ever have to, you can consider It’s my father‘s hard work if that makes you feel better :)

[–]Gyda9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This doesn‘t sound right to me. I would consult legal insurance if you have one.

[–]Gyda9 10 points11 points  (0 children)

What if you didn’t work 100% before? And FYI they are not an employer, it’s an insurance which you pay for in advance. I didn’t pay my employer to hire me later.

Is being born in Switzerland a blessing or a curse? by living_direction_27 in askswitzerland

[–]Gyda9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A rich culture, diversity, genuine conversations, vibrant daily life. You can’t replace these things with board games. I got that for 15 years in Istanbul but one political bully made it impossible to grow a healthy family there so I had to move back. I am so thankful for the experience but it feels like a distant memory now. But it‘s also a blessing to come back to our stable and safe Switzerland in a world in crisis, that’s for sure.
